If you're encountering issues where Visual Studio Express 2015 ISO isn't finding packages, there are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and resolve the problem:
Check Internet Connection: Ensure that your computer is connected to the internet. Visual Studio typically requires an internet connection to download necessary packages and components during installation.
Run as Administrator: Sometimes, administrative privileges are required for the installer to access and download packages. Right-click on the installer and select "Run as administrator" to see if this resolves the issue.
Download Offline Installer: Instead of using the web installer or ISO, try downloading the offline installer (if available). The offline installer usually contains all necessary packages and dependencies within the installation file itself, reducing the reliance on internet downloads during setup.
Antivirus and Firewall: Temporarily disable any antivirus software or firewall that may be blocking the installer from accessing the internet or downloading packages.
Check System Requirements: Ensure that your system meets the minimum requirements for Visual Studio 2015 Express. This includes sufficient disk space, RAM, and operating system version compatibility.
Check Installer Integrity: If the ISO file is corrupted or incomplete, it may cause issues during installation. Try re-downloading the ISO file from a reliable source and verify its integrity using checksums provided by the download source.
Contact Support: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, consider reaching out to Visual Studio support or forums for further assistance. They may have specific troubleshooting steps or updates related to installation issues.
By following these steps, you should be able to diagnose and resolve the problem with Visual Studio Express 2015 installation not finding packages.
